Menu Bar Dropdowns Now Touch-screen Friendly

Posted by sean on December 23, 2011

One of the frustrations for smartphone and tablet users using our sites is that our menus for selecting splits and gamelogs required you to hover over the button to get the drop down. Well on touch screens there is no hovering, so those menus were pretty much useless.

I've modified the scripts for this, so that on non-touch screens (laptops, etc) it works the same as before. On touchscreens, however, the buttons are now clickable and clicking on them brings up the menu and clicking again removes the menu, so if you really want Wade Boggs 1986 splits or Archie Manning's 1971 TD's thrown you can now get them.
